Pure stock, 31 inch tires, flat or down hill (m1009 with 3.08 gears).... she slows down to 45 when climbing a grade. Engine noise is not appreciably louder anything over 2700 rpm. I used to be afraid to push her over 65 but she does great at high speed. Speedometer was past 85 and hitting the...
Today I took my M1010 to go clear out my storage unit while idling In park it began making a clunking noise rhythmic with the engine when I hit the gas pedal the noise increased with the motor but then went away after loading up. I tried to drive away and it felt very mushy then stop driving...
Road trip
Took A trip to Vegas in my 1009 85+ most of the way except of course the hills total of a 5 Hour Drive from Phoenix. Took a four-day rifle class with my two nephews and ran into fellow steel soldier" treadlight "at a class at front sight in Pahrump Nevada. Drove back to Phoenix...
which test did they run? i have a 1009 and a 1010 and they emissions tested both differently... funny how they emissions test a truck that is not emissions equipped.
took my M1009 to flagstaff camping and 4-wheeling. fell back in love despite the current heatwave. got her up to over 85 on the freeway and she loved it (stock with 31's) around 2950 rpm cruzed 75-80 without a problem. I was always afraid to push past 65 mph but she did great. also got to play...
I don't know if this will help, but I heard of a place in Tucson with a lot of stuff, but he won't sell parts, just complete vehicles. Heard the prices are a bit high. Maybe someone else can chime in with a name?
Not sure what happened... Why is my post first and no pics like what I responded to?
ive seen this before and it's like getting only half of the conversation. Was the original deleted?
the brisket turned out great BTW:-D
for clarification original post had links to a photo site that also...
I have no clue what that is or if it will fit, but the pics of the meat in your album has inspired me to smoke a briskut.... And some ribs:tinkerbell::D
Funny you mention Odie, I bought some parts from him (great guy) and come to find out he was the one who brought the 1010 down from Washington and swapped out the axels to begin with. Then sold to a guy who sold to me.
I don't know what a semi float is? I guess I could call him and get more...
Yes the dually is a rear. The reason I bring it up is I think I can help a friend and get it cheap.
It all started looking at my springs... They are sagging. Then I think new springs, then lift, then while I'm there...axels, then why not duals? I also have access to a gear vendor overdrive...
I have an m1010 with axels that supposedly came from a suburban with 3.73 gears. I have entertained the thought of returning it to stock. I know very little about the specifics concerning axels and lockers so any advise is appreciated. I have a friend of a friend that has a dually axel from a...
If your going to convert it and pull out the bottom 2 berths, I would be interested in purchasing them. I have a 1010 that is currently stripped inside of the box.
welcome to the 1010 herd, I just finished chasing down most of my electrical gremlins. They are fun and frustrating at the same time
It doesn't look like it on amazon, but they do come in a box with 5 each. I ordered 4 and now have 20 each. They also aren't that yellowish color but are the right ac deco part:doh::doh:
